I recently interviewed for the Solution Architect – Kafka Streaming role at this company, and unfortunately, the experience was quite disappointing. The interview was rescheduled multiple times due to panel unavailability, which indicated a lack of coordination and professionalism from the outset. When it eventually took place, the session was led by an HR representative who appeared to have limited understanding of the technical domain. The conversation felt scripted and lacked the depth required for a senior-level architectural discussion. Additionally, communication challenges—partly due to language barriers—made the interaction even less productive. It would have been more appropriate to delay the interview until a qualified technical panel was available rather than proceed with a superficial screening. Following the interview, I proactively shared relevant questions and thoughts aligned with the job description, but I received no acknowledgment despite multiple follow-ups. This lack of engagement further raised concerns about the overall hiring process. I genuinely hope the organization reevaluates its approach to senior technical hiring. A well-structured, technically robust, and respectful process is essential to attract and assess experienced professionals effectively.
